Am I the only one that has one of these? I forgot my plug one day, what a scramble to get the boat back onto the trailer and out of the water lol. Went out on a friends boat and what do you know, slid boat off of trailer and started taking on water. I bought a check valve plug and never worried about it again. Now I have more time to forget other things!
